Welcome to The Sanctuary, a private post and beam retreat nestled on 3.45 acres of wildflower pastures, with three plentiful flowing streams, long-range year-round mountain views, and a well-maintained horse barn. This distinctive cabin offers rustic charm and modern upgrades, including a great room with a grand stone wood burning fireplace, a kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a main level primary suite with a generously sized jetted tub. A dedicated laundry and mud room and a heated and cooled 2 car garage, perfect for a home gym, add functionality. Relax on one of two serene balconies, taking in the sights and sounds of nature. The barn includes water, electric, a concrete floor, and room for 2 to 3 horses plus a small workshop. Gated for privacy, yet just minutes to Cataloochee Ski Resort, The Swag, and hiking into the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Only 10 minutes to Maggie Valley, 20 to Waynesville, and 40 to Asheville, this is a true mountain haven.
